Action-Packed Four-Day Weekend

The first list, that for the "Feria V of the First Week of Advent" is actually at SS. John and James in the Arctic section of town.  This Mass was announced in this past Sunday's Sacred Heart bulletin.  It will be celebrated by Fr. Derek Puleo, who has celebrated Mass at Sacred Heart on several occasions.  The organist for that Mass is yours truly.

The other two lists are for Masses celebrated here at Sacred Heart.
